Actor Rhys Ifans officially opened the Canolfan Genedlaethol Iaith a Diwylliant / National Centre for Language and Culture at Nant Gwrtheyrn, Llithfaen, on 5 May 2003.

Super Furry Animals (which once featured Ifans in an early version of the band) played an exclusive concert to 60 people in the chapel. Advance word about the concert appeared first on the List and this website. Following the announcement on Radio Cymru, tickets sold out in minutes. Of the occasion, Ifans said, "I've never been asked to open something before ~ other than a bottle of cider."
